When I turn my VPN on, NZB360 won’t work. I don’t think it works when I refresh my dyn dns either (I’ll check soon). I have to turn my VPN off, refresh my dyndns, and I’m good to go.
Any way to make it automatically work regardless of my VPN being on? I’ll be home soon to test as suggestions come in.
I posted the same thing a few weeks ago. The only solution I found to using DynDNS with the VPN on was to use a Raspberry Pi as a proxy outside the VPN but on the same LAN.
Is this something that needs to be supported in NZB 360? I would assume, as long as the address you entered into NZB 360 was reachable via the VPN, it would work.
I am happy to add support if this is on the app side.
When you turn on the VPN you are now coming from outside your network. You need to expose your network to the outside world via port forwarding.
I encountered the same issue (running my server connected to Private Internet Access 24/7). My solution was to enable a dynamic dns and an at home vpn on my dd-wrt router.
Now I just login to my router’s at home vpn using my android phone and I can connect to nzb360 remotely.
Why are you running a VPN on your phone if your within your local network? Your on a trusted network with wireless encryption. I don’t see the point to be honest.
Another thing what type of VPN? You don’t mention the provider (something your run yourself, a VPN provider, etc) , the protocol being used, etc. When you launch the VPN on your phone are you connected to wireless and is that wireless network part of the LAN your Usenet setup runs on?
I installed hamachi on my android device and my centos device. This seems to get the job done. Just make sure to setup the local to your local lan ip address and the remote to your vpn ip (NZB360 allows local and remote ips).

Is there anyone out there that can help me set up a reverse proxy? My VPN service will allow me to forward 1 port. So if I can forward that 1 port and then somehow gain access to all of my usenet software from that 1 port, that would be awesome!
Even if there are no guides for doing this explicitly, could someone at least help me with what to Google? I don’t mind learning and stumbling thru this on my own, I just don’t know where to start.
Yes, I have this running right now, however it doesn’t help me get nzb360 working 
I think you are right but it’s a little over my head. I think people are giving good suggestions so upvotes all around, but I have some reading to do if I’m going to understand better. Learning time!
Is this something that most home routers can support? I was thinking of installing pfsense as a vm and having it handle all dhcp and dns. I would assume that pfsense could handle static routing?
Could you please explain what your command example is doing?
Dang. Was hoping for a simple solution
Do you have a guide for doing this? I would be very interested!
I am not the technical person to suggest how this could be added, but I’m guessing we aren’t the only ones using a VPN and having this issue. Would be super awesome to get this figured out!
I am happy to add support if this is on the app side.
But not happy to add a way for your customers that already bought the app to be grandfathered in to the non-play store version?
Not really sure what you mean. What do I forward? I’ve setup port forwarding for other stuff, so I get the concept, but not too sure what you are saying.
My VPN (PIA) is on my PC. I don’t us it on my phone.
If you can only forward 1 port through your VPN, run htpc manager or maraschino on your PC, let it act as intermediary for all your apps and use it to control everything via web UI.
I think he means to run the command on the PC, not the router in which case it doesn’t matter what router you use
It was kind of a pain in the ass to be honest. You have to edit iptables in Raspbian to do some port forwarding and such.
